Also of note - this is why you don't hotlink.

If this is meant for more than just the lulz, do note that because the chat thread is locked only mods can do anything about it.

As a sausage photographer
I worked a long time on taking the best sausage image that I could
And now you are passing it off as your own sausage
This is mildly funny.
I can land this. Gimme a minute.
maybe i'm streaming terrible dj right now if i am its here
Suck it, @Dread Pirate Arbuthnot! Old man gets it right!
I am actually the first man to ever produce a jpeg of a sausage
I patented all jpegs of sausages
It is time to start demanding royalties

I heard @Surrealitycheck invented the sausage.
Some insane religious group stole a German photographer's picture of a bratwurst for their website. Said photographer, in order to assert his copyright, hired a lawyer to shoot off a C&D to the website, and anyone using the image from that website.
I don't really see any reason to look up his copyright. Who cares? It's a sausage image from a month-old chat thread post. Though, it's hilarious that it provoked a C&D.
Bitte, stoppen mit der Schnitzel stehlen!!!!
I apologize, thought it was smaller.
It was an appropriate response, yes.
There must be a smaller version somewhere.
my bangers and mash
Anyone who enjoys sausage photography should not watch it being made.
fie, for shame, forums
from now on, I am going to e-mail the creators of all images that I link and ask for permission.

What infringing material? It's a hotlinked image.
I very much doubt that a german website will have registered their copyright in the US.
You are missing the most important question. Why did the religious site need a sausage?
